If you make a game based on a historical period there has to be at least a tie into reality. Why do all countries research equally? Why can Bhutan get nukes? Why can Mexico just put everything into building rifles and then roll over the American border? Why can Germany who by 1936 has most of the countries communists locked up in concentration camps flip back to communism in a year? There is no historical plausibility. But in a game from 1936-1948 there needs to be some basic limits. Look I get it, you want to make x country great again and paint the world in your color. In all honesty I'd prefer there to be no Air System at all over this boring Military Factory consuming "interaction". Which is apparently so complicated it will take more than a year to divide up into more manageable chunks. This obviously leads to big problems for Hearts of Iron IV as a game, if the cog won't turn it doesn't matter how many national focus trees you have or how hard you encourage multiplayer it is still going to be a never ending frustrating trip to "Oh the fucking AI strat redeployed my mountaineers into the plains again" land.Ī completely contrasted system which you have no real interaction with, not to mention the enormous size of the air zones. They built a machine around a cog that doesn't turn. If you make a game entirely on the basis of AI controlling things, even though you said AI controlling things was bad in Hearts of Iron III and then the AI is just awful you don't really have a game to work with. Now that we are done with the awful DLC Paradox has given us I'm going to list out the major issues I still have with the game. So what do you say to the 25% value added onto the game? Again basic stuff that should be in the game, besides isn't the puppet pretty pointless if you don't already own Together for Victory? Can't believe this is in their great list of what you get in this DLC.

Then again I assumed this would be in the base game when the hype train was rolling a year ago. Using the one good part of the game this might actually be alright. Modders have already been there but sure if people want to pay for them go ahead, to be honest I wish they divided away Focus Trees into a separate DLC, like they do with cosmetic stuff, but then they wouldn't have anything in the DLC would they?

Do you really feel you are getting that much game for your money? Honestly I don't think you could sell this DLC to me for any price.ġ0 euros so now we are only trying to reach 25% of the Hearts of Iron IV base price. Remember this is 37.5% of the Hearts of Iron IV base game you are paying for here. Something that most definitely should have been in the base game, yet isn't. I can't actually believe they list this as a feature. The entire combat system is pinned on the Battleplan system and you lock a command that makes it more manageable behind a paywall. You can now actually tell the inept AI what you need to win the war for it, since it can't figure it out on its own, Yours now for only 14.99€! They then decided to actually make a system around puppet interactions, voila. They made a focus tree for India then realized how pointless it was since India was a puppet. You can now go communist/fascist/democratic and we have added country specific text to each one, so now it isn't quite so ridiculous for your country to suddenly turn communist within half a year! (it still is) Quite frankly for 15 euros I expect a lot more than this, remember that the entire game costs 40 euros.
Hearts of iron 5 price mods#
Often replacing mods already made for these countries that provided near equal flavor and content to these countries. Speaking of charging us money let us take a look at the DLC Paradox has provided us over a year. The Kaiserreich team for example are making excellent Focus Trees far beyond what Paradox charges us money for. The average flavor for countries are just abysmal and quite frankly modders are embarrassing Paradox right in front of us.

Boy was I wrong.Īfter a full year the entire game feels incredibly basic. With mods, with DLC with fixes and patches it would be great just like all other Paradox games.

It has nearly been a year now since the release of Hearts of Iron IV and I remember like many others being hopeful that the game could turn into something great. Yet I do not see that happening to Hearts of Iron IV for one simple reason, the game is to its very core, broken. The same happened for Hearts of Iron III. They stayed with their game and built a long lasting community around it. When Hearts of Iron III released Hearts of Iron II fans decried it as an abomination.
